Add the cherry tomatoes and cook for another 1 minute until they start to soften.

Step 6

Add the baby spinach to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute until wilted.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low and pour the beaten eggs into the skillet over the vegetables.

Step 8

Stir gently with a spatula, pushing the eggs from the edges towards the center as they begin to set.

Step 9

Continue to cook until the eggs are softly scrambled, slightly firm, and no longer runny.

Step 10

Sprinkle the scrambled eggs with crumbled feta cheese, salt, and black pepper.

Step 11

Give the mixture one final gentle stir and remove from heat.
